Thanks so much to the folks who worked on this concept! Can you try to include real time data with national polling on the issue which can be included prior to the date it will be live on Congress?
Excellent Congress app. Help keeping you informed, updated, tracked current H.R. and Senate bills, votes, and committees transactions, etc. Provide correct contact data. Plus, it shows how both political parties take care of citizens business together Keep up the great work.
It's a really good app to keep informed. I love the feature that you can reach out and call your representatives in it. I would like to see The app continued to expand on multiple ways of contacting your representatives. Thank you
Great for anyone that wants to know what's going on in the US Congress. Very informative, comprehensive and customizable. I would have given 5 stars if it had a better interface. Finding what you need is not very easy and the controls are not very intuitive. Also, the search functionality is very limited. Dispite these shortcomings it's still the best app I've seen for tracking my legislators and the current activities in Congress. Thanks.
This is an amazing app that lets you keep track of things in the complicated world of Congress. What it is, is a basic tool to help you keep track of things that are currently happening. It's basic information, that's helps you navigate the crazy amount of information that happens in Congress every day. Keeps track of every vote for every representative, every event, every day. What it isn't, is a full information app that gives you every little detail of everything. If you see something you are interested in, you have to do some of your own research to get down to the nitty gritty. But what it does do is give a brief blurb on what each bill or vote or committees, happened or is about. If you want more information, you have to research that yourself, which you should be doing anyway. This just let's you navigate it/guide you eaiser."
